Replacing Front Upper Control Arms
While my motor is out, I would like to replace my front upper control arms. Who sells the best ones (they dont need to be adjustable), and would it be ok to just replace these uppers and keep the stock lowers for now?? Also, I want them to have rubber oem-type bushings instead of the harsher poly bushings....

Gbody Parts sells tubular ones, however, they do have the poly bushings. They ar emuch better bushings as far as squeaking goes than they were 10 years ago. I just took my stockers and got a PST rebuild kit to put on. I media blasted them then painted them, look great. The tubulars are price reasonably though and I will prolly put them on sometime in the future.

Justabuickv6,
Great pics...Does that brand of upper control arms have oem-type rubber bushings?? It looks like the job is just as easy to do while the motor is in the car anyways....
